3 Holiday Mishaps That Can be Avoided with Soapstone Countertops
If you’re hosting a holiday gathering at your home this year, your excitement to catch up with old friends and relatives might be instead replaced with worry about your kitchen. The holidays should be spent relaxing and spending time with others, not constantly checking in your kitchen to make sure nothing has been damaged!
If you’re considering installing new countertops in your home in anticipation of the holiday season, choose soapstone kitchen countertops in King of Prussia, PA to avoid these three holiday mishaps.
- A burned counter. Imagine this. You set the green bean casserole on the counter after being pulled straight from the oven only to find that once you pick it up, a massive black mark is left on your beautiful countertop! Unlike some other countertop materials, soapstone kitchen countertops in West Chester, PA do not absorb heat so they can withstand any dish that you put down on it.
- Soaked-in stains. Kids running in the house (even when you told them not to) can easily cause chaos including spilled juice or soda on your beautiful countertops! Since soapstone is non-porous, it doesn’t absorb stains very easily. You’ll have plenty of time to wipe up any dark liquid that makes its way onto your countertops.
- Post-holiday sickness. With so many people walking through your kitchen, there’s no doubt that some nasty bacteria will make their way into your home. Instead of spending hours scrubbing down your countertops with Lysol to make sure they’re clean, stick with a hygienic material. Soapstone doesn’t harbor bacteria, also thanks to its non-porous nature.
When it comes to great holiday design choices, the right choice is clear. Give our team at Bucks County Soapstone a call today at 215-310-0290 to learn more about the benefits of soapstone countertops.
